About “4, 3, 2, 1”

“4, 3, 2, 1” is a single by LL Cool J, Method Man, Redman, Canibus, Master P and DMX from LL Cool J’s seventh album Phenomenon. It was released on December 9, 1997 for Def Jam Recordings and was produced by LL Cool J and Erick Sermon

This song is most notable for starting the LL and Canibus beef because a line Canibus says,“L, is that a mic on your arm, lemme borrow that.” LL found this offensive and had him change the line. LL also disses Canibus in the song, that prompted Canibus to record 2nd round k.o.

It features a sample of LL’s own ‘Rock the Bells
And from the Beastie Boys song “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)

The video version not only does not include Canibus on the video but it cut Canibus' verse altogether. This version of the song includes Canibus' verse.
